Following the HoH competition (find out who won here), Julie officially spilled the beans on the Backstage Boss twist. Since he claimed the Backstage Boss ticket, Julie informed Pooch that he was sent "backstage" and received immunity for the entire first week. As a result, Pooch can not be nominated for eviction. But there's a catch. Pooch is ineligible to compete in any Week 1 competitions and will not be allowed to vote in the first eviction of the summer.Article continues below advertisementSource: CBS If you thought this twist only affected one houseguest, you forgot to "expect the unexpected." Julie soon announced another aspect of the Backstage Boss twist. Pooch had to choose three other houseguests to join him "backstage." In the end, Pooch selected Paloma, Alyssa, and Brittany. Although the trio also can't be nominated, play in the week's competitions, or vote on eviction night, one of them could still be sent out the front door.
